custom reminder

<< < (2/4) > >>

skwire:
I'd like to think that some task management apps let you set up a sort of recurring profile that would allow you to easily do what you want because the chances of you finding an app that automatically does exactly what you want are very slim.  You're either going to have to do a bit of manual work in an existing program or write your own.

@kalos:
A few thoughts from me:

* I sometimes use Stickies to pop up a reminder note (alarm).    :Thmbsup:
* @skwire's rather nifty Anuran might be something really useful that you could use under the circumstances you describe.   :Thmbsup:
* I have requested a new thing for CHS (@mouser's proggy, Clipboard Help & Spell) to implement virtual folder/SQL functionality that will enable a note popup on a date/time alarm, since things I have copied to the clipboard will invariably be things about which I wish to be reminded to do something later, so if I had this feature, then I would not need to have to go to the extra trouble of pasting it into yet another application that will remind me of it. (I detest having to perform what would otherwise be unnecessary duplication.)  :)
Hope these help or are of use.

kalos:
as I see in the screenshots Anuran allows you to set only one specific interval, with no ending point.

thanks but none of this suits

1) they either do not offer ability to set multiple reminders after a starting date, or when they do, the reminders are either daily, weekly, monthly, without the option to set a custom sequence

2) they do not offer the ability to set a starting date and then automatically generate the reminders
